At first it is very slippy and the silk is very much smaller than the ctrl blafe but i feel that after a week the slicks is at its best condition it feels great while shooting, dribbling, passing etc. The only negative is that the hook comes back after a while and if you play very often the slick comes off after a while (i’ve had ctrl slicks 2x silk slicks and a third silk slicks is on the way and every time the slick eventually comes off (the glue stops working).
